I am having a problem installing XFree86 under NetBSD 1.1. I checked
the FAQ and can't find anything. It seems to be related to xterm and
not X itself. If I run X directly then everything seems to run O.K.
(Unfortunately I can't start any other programs... I assume xterm is a
requirement if X is to be useful) I am new to X and relatively new to
UNIX so I appologize if this problem has an obvious answer.
Below is the output from running the command
startx >& startx.out
TIA
